How wonderful that your dad was able to see it and enjoy it...I started one for my son that I was going to finish when he came back from Iraq...the center medallion is an eagle..I was going to add his awards around it along with stars...it is now sitting in a drawer...I don't have the heart to finish it since he was killed in Iraq....your dad was so blessed that you were able to give him such a wonderful gift of pride and recognition...blessings
